Henderson police responded to a report of gunshots at the Highland Green Apartments on Pinkston Street at 12:21 a.m Monday. Police Chief Marcus Barrow said the shooting happened when a vehicle pulled up to a group of people that were standing in front of the apartments and someone began firing a weapon. Hargrove's cousin, 18 year-old Aisha Taylor, was also injured.

"They say they were targeting someone else," Bullock said.

Bullock said since the moment her daughter was shot she has been amazed by her strength.

Your Local Gangbangers at work. The problem is of course the gang mentality and culture that exist today. It seems that so many people nowadays are attracted to that lifestyle.

Sincere prayers are with this brave young girl and her family. I also saw the news segment, and applaud her positive spin on this.

A relative of this child commented on a previous store and explained why she was outside so late. Her father had to work and was dropping her off at her mother's place.

This is a terrible incident but it also begs to ask why that child was out at that time of night and without adult supervision? I watched the tv interview with the family and the question never came up, the mother seemed totally unconcerned. Just sayin..

Did I miss Rev. Barber's NAACP rally and news conference in these violent Henderson neighborhoods addressing the issues behind this type of senseless violence? Oh no, they were in Hillsborough complaining about the Confederate Monument that perpetrated this drive by shooting.

I'm sure these shooters passed a criminal background check and were mentally well balanced.
